while asexual people don't really experience homophobia, we do suffer other struggles regarding our identity that are just as valid as those suffered by allosexual people.

reminder that asexual and aromantic people are valid

Me, wearing my aro and ace rings at the same time: Hell yeah,

Awhile back, I wasn’t in the best mental place, and I used to scroll through the discourse tags a lot. I used it as a way to hurt myself.

To all of you doing the same thing,

Stop scrolling

Get some water

Have a snack

Watch your favorite tv show or movie

Talk to your friends

Take a nap

Go on a walk

Just take care of yourselves. Discourse is not the place for you. I wish I could wrap you in a fluffy blanket and a hug!

Feel better friends! :)

So there’s this boy that I like and we’ve done several things recently that qualify as dates. So I asked if we are dating or just hanging out? He said that he would like it if we were dating but wanted to leave it up to me.

Well, I want to date him too but we had to have the “talk” first. About my ace-ness. Because I believe in being honest and upfront. If they really want a very physical relationship then that isn’t going to work for me.

Well, this led to an argument between me and my mother. She thought that I needed to wait because maybe it’s just a phase and once I start doing stuff with this boy then maybe I’ll be better.

I really like the boy, but I don’t want him to cure me. Maybe I will do physical stuff with him because it will make him happy. But that will be my choice at that time. I don’t think it will be the magical cure of my asexuality and I don’t want it to be.

Demizinha panromantica passando pelo seu feed pra lembrar que assexualidade ainda é tratada como disturbio pela psiquiatria apesar de assexuais serem pessoas saudaveis fisica e mentalmente que sentem rara ou nenhuma atraçao sexual (Vc alo que ta reclamando da cura gay, ainda enfiam viagra nossa goela abaixo) Beijo pros mozoes arromanticos que tao longe de ser insensíveis e babacas💚⚪⚫🖤 #assexualidade #demissexual #acepositivity #pridemonth #asexual #lgbt #arromantico #aromantic #acespec #ace #aro

Ahhh I finally told my best friend and she was...accepting?? I don’t know why I thought she wouldn’t be but it’s why I put it off. It’s so nice that I was able to tell her and have someone accept me and not try to recommend ways for me to start liking sex. What a nice change of pace. I’m glad I told her
